The Good Old Cleopatra Slot!
When I walked into my first land-based casino, Ooh, must have been around 2004 I guess, IGT's 'Cleopatra slot' was THE game to play! I have subsequently disovered it was a bit of acash-in on Aristocrat's Queen Of The Nile slot but nonetheless, Cleo caught the imagination with her 15 free spins at 3x bonus round, in the days when most slots bonus rounds were 'pick 'em' style bonuses rather than the 'free spins' concept we love so much today. Remember the Texas Tea slot? Well, that was pretty much the gold standard until Cleopatra showed up!
Fast forward to 2021 and when I walk into my favorite casinosin Vegas or in London, guess what? Yup...theh Cleopatra slot still sits prominentlyalongside a lot of much newer and more sophisticated games. It's not the only 'old timer'to still put in a showing of course: games like Wolf Run or the original Davinci Diamonds slot game are still quitepopular in some places (and online) but the Cleopatra slots (IGT subsequently release Cleopatra 2 which, inmy opinion is a better - and way more volatile! - game) are still the more popular.
Here in the UK as far as land-based games go, Cleopatra is usually found embedded in the Fort Knox progressive kiosk or on a Game King machine, normally with lower bet limits. There is little doubtthat games ike Book Of Ra and the Pharaoh's Fortune slot get more gameplay in the casinos I frequent but when you consider a standard UK casino licence only allows for 20 slot machines, the fact that Cleopatra is still there in this day and age is quite amazing IMO.
Cleopatra vs Cleopatra II
The original Cleopatra slot (which you can play above) and Cleopatra II share the bonus feature trigger mechanism: 3 scatters anywhere in view. On the original however, when you get the feature you get 15 free spins with all wins trebled (15x3), while on Cleopatra II, you get to pick a number of spins and the multiplier increases by one on each spin. But it's much harder to hit wins on Cleopatra II in the feature round, compared to the original (but when you do it can be monster because of the increasing multiplier in Cleopatra II's free-spin feature).
One note about the respective expected returns (RTP). The two versions of Cleopatra you see at land-based casinos (the sit-down IGT Game King slot machine while the other is the upright 'kiosk' version) both have lower payouts than the online versions. There are two online versions available which differ slightly in appearance, but are both identical in game play.
To be fair, an educated guess says that the Cleopatra slots you see in Vegas casinos have a slightly higher RTP setting than those in the UK because the paytables are more akin to the online version. But it's not published. The version of the Cleopatra slot you find here at Online Casinos Vegas has an RTP marginally over 95% as it does at all online casinos.
The key difference between the online version and the land-based versions of Cleopatra that account for the payout percentage differences is that the online version pays out for two scatter symbols (unlike when you play Cleopatra slot machines using the 'Game King' boxes) and also for 2 9's, unlike both the GameKing and the upright versions at land based casinos.
Cleopatra Slot: My 5-Scatter Win!
I thought you might be interetsted to see this screenshot of 5 scatters that I hit playing the original Cleopatra slot back on 31st January 2010 at BetVictor's online casino. It was the first (and only!) time it's ever happened to me though!

Way back in 2006 when I visited my first Las Vegas casino, I didn't actually realise it was going to be the first of many pilgrimages. I was awestruck by the sheer size of the casinos and the vibrant atmosphere that just carries you along until you hit exhaustion point or (speaking more as a slots player!) you run out of money!
That was when the idea for Online Casinos Vegas ('OCV') hit me: it seemed that it would only be a matter of time before Vegas casinos started launching online, despite opposition at Federal level. So I decided to fill the gap by puttig up free versions of some of my favorite Vegas slots. IGT's famous Cleopatra slot, the popular Pharaoh's Fortune and Davinci Diamonds were the first slots I added to the site and allthough you can't win real money, the online versions come with a better RTP than their land-based counterparts.
The popularity of these free slot games grew far quicker than I expected. They now attract 1000's of visitors every day so I have since expanded the choice to include some of the newer games available to play online. WMS slots including Raging Rhino, Black Knight and Zeus III, IGT games like the aforementioned ones and some slots with unusual layouts like Davinci Diamonds Dual-play and Siberian Storm. Throw in some old favorites like Aristocrat's Where's The Gold and the perennially popular Pompeii slot, some European games from Novomatic including Book Of Ra and Lord Of The Ocean and the selection of free slots on offer here now is quite varied.
Below are the links to all of the free slots I've added: no registration or download is required to play any of these games, although you will find some providers block their slots in countries where playing online casinos is either illegal or unregulated.

IGT developed the art-themed Da Vinci Diamonds slot machine with an air of elegance and beauty. In 2007, IGT introduced her land-based casino players to Da Vinci diamonds which is an online version. Since then its great innovative style has been adopted by online slot game designers. IGT slot machines are well-known at land-based casinos, and their games are popular online, but many players are new to the fact that tumbling reels and progressive jackpots were the features first introduced by IGT slots. The Nevada Megabucks progressive slot machine created in 1986 revolutionized the concept of the jackpot, making it possible.
